Representative Firms That Come
to the Front This week.

Representative FIRMS Enat COtAC
to the Front This week.
NJ. H. LIPMAN.
Surely energy and ability asserts itself
until prominence is attained. This has
been the case with NJ. H. Lipman, who
has built up business which is a credit
to the city and a compliment to the gen.
tleman who has been the architect. Mr..
L reports trade increasing and far better
than in former years. This is what all
legitimate business houses expect and
deserve. The fine clothing found at Lip
mans is all made by the firm, which is
guarantee that the quality cannot be
questioned. An inspection of the stock
will drive all doubts from the mind of
the purchaser and will justify the asser-
ton that "Lipman's clothing is second
to none"
It is due to the house to say that their
material is not picked up at cheap sales,
but is the result of careful selections in
foreign markets. The style in which
they are made up is neat and tie work is
strong and durable In addition to the
stock of clothing which is artistically
displayed, the house carries a choice line
of gents furnishing goods, and is now
unpacking a select stock of summer
wear, the price of which is hard to meet
quality considered They have light
coats for Office wear, which they offer at
the price usually paid for a pair of
sleeves. Mr.. L. is the sole agent for the
Manhattan Shirts in this Territory and as
thousands can testify, these shirts for
durability, neatness and fit are pre-emi
nently in the lead. Truly may it be said
that fairness in dealing and goods that
recommend themselves will place any
business house in that enviable position
now occupied by M. H. Lipman.
SAM LEWIS.
Fifteen years ago Sam Levy came to
this city and began the manufacture of
cigars. This statement does not seem to
portend much, but to Mr.. Levy it means
period of trials which would require
more than ordinary nerve to stand. AS
the sequel will show, Mr.. L. had the
necessary grit, and this with a thorough
knowledge Of the business has carried
him through the rapids into smooth
water. The gentleman kindly showed
THE DEMOCRAT man through the factory
in the rear of the sales room.
Here is seen the processes by which the
fragrant leaves are transformed into those
delightful cigars for which Mr.. L. is be-
coming famous. The little boys stripping
the filters and wrappers and passing them
to the def manipulators seated at the
tables, the care with which the beautiful
leaves are handled and the rapidity with
which the cigar makers select the filters
and place them in the wrappers and by
an artistic and careful roll a cigar is
made. From the maker the cigars
are taken into the sorting room.
Here the cigars are selected, placed in
boxes and pressed, and after a certain
time are ready for the consumer. Mr..
L. selects his own tobaccos, and he has
such stock on hand that he is now using
the 1884 crop. This allows the leaf to
age, giving that delightful flavor so
eagerly sought after by smokers. Since
Mr.. Levy's visit to Cuba he has made
several marked improvements in his
factory, each of which aid him in his
work. We were shown through the
cellar, in which is stored cases of the
choicest products of Cuba. In addition
to the storing room at the factory,
Mr.. Levy has an immense stock
carefully stored in a cool and well-venti-
lated cellar at his residence. When this
industry was started the demand only
called for the manufacture OF seven or
eight thousand per year, now his ina
bllity to secure good workmen keeps him
on the jump to fill the orders which are
daily pouring in. This factory now has
capacity of filling orders to the amount
of one million cigars year. Mr.. Levy is
all smiles, and justly too, for but few men
could have produced these results with
the disadvantages and competition which
apparently blockaded the road to sue
cessful manufacture of cigars in our city.
MIR. Levy has overcome every obstacle,
and is now furnishing better article at
a cheaper price than can be purchased
elsewhere. White labor, care in the
selection of stock and bona fde resident
OF the city should command the patron
age OF all who are interested in the de-
velopment of our Territory, which can be
materially augmented by encouraging the
local industries. If partiest east and
west see that the people here encourage
an industry, they will come to us with
their capital and establish others. We
owe it to ourselves to give our patronage
to those who struggle to build up an
industry which strengthens the city and
Territory.
SELLS & CRISMoN.
Messrs. Sells & Crismon have recently
entered the real estate field and, being
well known in business circles, have al
ready made some heavy sales. The
members of this firm are gentlemen who
have for years been identified with
the interests OF the city and
we recommend them to those who are
deslrous OF placing their business in COM
petent hands. They are live and active
and will guard carefully all interests of
their patrons. Success will surely
attend them for they know just
how to WOO that tickle goddess. The
DEMOCRAT has nothing but good words
for those who desire to see this Territory
and our city steadily rise TO that position
they so richly deserve. Messrs. Sells and
Crismon belong to this class, and that in
itself is guarantee of their reliability.
wooLLEY & CUMMINGS.
These gentlemen have recently opened
an office where they are prepared to en-
terrain all who wish to make inquiries in
regard to mining stocks, real estate loans
and collections. A. d. Woolley and
J.. Cummings are both well known, and
though recently established in the real
estate business, are both men of expert
ence in business. They will be
pleased to have anyone call when
visiting the city. These gentlemen are
handling some valuable properties and
are prepared at all times to furnish in
formation. They are responsible, trust
worthy and alive to the requirements of
their business.
